Harnessinggrassroots ingenuityfor your sustainable future
Our Approach
Whether you’re a finance organisation, part of a global supply chain, or a government body, we can help you improve your sustainability and impact.
Our approach is unique and proven:
- We harness the knowledge of global workforces and engage them in delivering better outcomes and impacts.
- In the process, we provide you with the richest possible sustainability data and help embed sustainability into the DNA of your organisation.
Our solutionsFieldApp
- Our FieldApp means people on the ground can identify and solve problems to improve their lives.
- The data and solutions they find can be scaled up so everyone benefits.
- You decide the questions that need answering: users give you data and come up with solutions.
- Our method means users take ownership of solutions, collecting data in the process.
- We produce reports tailored to you, with the rich sustainability data you need.
- You benefit from an engaged workforce to implement successful solutions from the grassroots.
OUR SOLUTIONSoutcometracker
- Our OutcomeTracker relates ESG/Sustainability data to traditional corporate ratios and ensures their seamless integration into all our clients’ decision-making processes…
- ...so that you know all your decisions take into account the true impact of a company’s practices.
- OutcomeTracker integrates with our clients’ corporate data systems.
- ESG/Sustainability data can be ingested and extracted automatically as and when needed.
- Data can be customised to our clients’ metrics system.
- Clients decide which information they consider to be “material” for all communication, management and corporate funding projects.
- OutcomeTracker provides industry comparisons, supports all stakeholder engagement projects and can do so with high frequency.
Graphs for illustrative purposes only. Based on real but incomplete data.
OUR SOLUTIONSFINANCIAL PRODUCT STRUCTURING
We are looking to collaborate with asset owners and asset managers on the facilitation of systems change. Our unique quality of material, outcome-focused and constantly updated sustainability data can form the basis for:
- meaningful risk management tools
- the creation of targeted, scalable funding and investment management product.
We would be delighted to be able to play our part in the unlocking of the financial means required to address some of humankind’s most pressing sustainability challenges. Examples include:
- GP stake investing
- "Contingent payer” structures.
We invite asset owners and managers, and the financial, social and corporate sectors to accompany us on this journey.
DEPLOYMENTSFieldApp
- We used our FieldApp to help improve public health safety during Covid-19
- We started in June 2020 and by September were live in 19 countries
- Pilots now live in 27 countries
- New pilots with people living with HIV, TB and malaria
- Results: All pilots flagged up important safety issues:
- 73% of users reported test kits not present when needed
- Over 400 reports of infected patients not being separated
- A nurse set up a makeshift second waiting area to separate suspected infected patients from others
- Malaria patients alerted sponsors to send more bednets - 9 Ministries of Health have signed a Memorandum of Understanding in support of national scale-up plans

Press
Quote from our CEO Fredrik Galtung in The Guardian’s long read "Is fair trade finished?"
“If Fairtrade producers could show that their farmers were 10 or 20 years younger on average ... that would be a massive advantage. But we’re unable to see all this.”
In a podcast with Break the Chain, Fredrik spoke about inputs and outputs versus outcomes and impact.
Fredrik was interviewed by The New Ism, talking about how bottom-up measurement and empowerment is key in sustainability.
Quote from Mining Weekly on TrueFootprint’s mining industry Scorecard:
“governments, investors and customers have no way at present of assessing the effectiveness of key business sustainability investments, which means that some companies are not getting credit for the work they are doing and the social and economic value they create.”
